Picture of cool
The Pilbara Motorcycle Sisters volunteered their Harleys and their cool looks for a fun shoot with local photographers at Cossack historical town last weekend. The happy snappers were on one of ABC Open’s group photography excursions. And if you’ve got a bike or a camera, both groups are open to new members.
